Research universities and universities of applied sciences award both types of degrees. Institutes for International Education offer master’s programmes, but no bachelor’s programmes.

The “non-EU/EEA rate” is the rate for students from outside the EU/EEA.

The “institutional rate” is for all students who have already obtained a bachelor’s or master’s degree and who want to start a second programme leading to a degree at the same level or at a lower level.

Note that FT, PT and D stand for "full-time", "part-time" and "dual", respectively.
